Servings: persons

1/4 cups Shortening
1/2 sticks Butter, Softened
1 cup Brown Sugar
1 teaspoon Vanilla
1 whole Egg
2 cups Flour
1 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoons Salt
2 cups Fresh Or Frozen Cranberries, Chopped In The Food Processor Or Blender
1 cup Chopped Nuts (optional)
1-1/2 cup Dark Chocolate Chips (I Prefer Ghirardelli's)

1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease or line cookie sheets with parchment paper.
2
Using an electric mixer, beat shortening, softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add vanilla and egg, mix well.
3
Combine in a separate bowl the flour, baking powder and salt. Add to the shortening mixture, mixing until a soft dough forms. Stir in chopped cranberries, nuts, and chocolate. Do not overmix or your cookies will be pink, which, depending on you, may or may not be a good thing.
4
Immediately drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls onto prepared cookie sheets. Bake for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to a wire rack to cool.
5
To freeze and bake later, roll out cookie balls, freeze individually until solid on cookie sheets and pop into a plastic baggie. When ready to make them, bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes.
